The challenge this week is to do some 'tangles'.
As you will have seen from previous postings I really like doing it.
I have quite a few books on the subject which are great for learning patterns or simply for inspiration. It is very relaxing to do and you don't need much in the way of products. Sakura Micron Pens are ideal for this. It's a good idea to have a selection of different size nibs. You can tangle from scratch by drawing some basic shapes to fill with a pencil or you can fill a stamped image or like I have done a Peel Off's design. I do not really follow the patterns in the books... I ad lib! I have put together a selection of images that I have 'tangled'. Give it a go it's good fun! Pop along to the Woodware Blog for other 'tangled' ideas.
This card is not square... as the challenge requires! I'm not sure what the shape is....
The cute little mouse comes from this set;
FRCL192 Micey Mice
It fits perfectly in the woodware 3" purple punch. I have used the Sakura Moonlight pens to colour the cake. The greeting is also in the set. The heart border has been punched using the Crafty Edger. Of course you could also keep the hearts for other projects.
Do pop along to the Woodware blog for other ideas.
This week the challenge is a sketch. I have gone for a Christmas card idea using the gingerbread man from this set:
FRCL179 Gingerbread Collection
In the set are elements that you can use to compliment the main images such as the candy cane.
I have use Diamond Stickles to highlight the gingerbread man and Glossy accents on the icing.
The lovely background paper is from the 'Oslo' collection distributed by Woodware. I love the brown gingham ribbon as well as all the other ones in the Woodware collection.
